1.Yes Xreality Engine Works fine in this rom with both unlock/lock bootloader devices
2.if you want to remove full small apps you need to delete or uninstall SmallAppManagerService.apk or com.sony.smallapp.managerservice from system/apps by root browser or just uninstall it using titanium backup or other bloatware removing apps :good:

[Q] DRM & TrackID Restore

ok we all know that unlocking bootloader removes the DRM even if we relock the bootloader.
my question are:
1. is there a way to backup first the DRM before unlocking bootloader
2. if yes, is there a way to restore it
============================================================
another thing is that TrackID doesnt work because of DRM key deletion during unlocking bootloader. "Music Like" doesnt work also because it is connected to TrackID.
my question here are:
1. There's update of TrackID on android market. I dowloaded it, TrackID works again but still why "Music Like" doesnt work?
2. Is there a modified version of "Music Likes.apk" so that it will work together with the newest version of TrackID?
Thanks.
There is no way of backuping and restoring DRM keys. They are on partition to which we don't have access.
So you installed that track ID app and you made it recognize a song? Strange..
ok heres what i did, i unlocked the bootloader.
so my stock TrackID & Music Likes doesnt work.
i decided to relock my boot loader.
Stock TrackID & Music Likes still doesnt working
then i downloaded the newest TrackID on market.
The trackID is working, everyting is normal, every buttons, links, recording etc.
but still Music Likes on the default Music Player doent work

Only way to keep them is to use testpoint unlock method.
stick with the question please.
If you'll notice, not only did I stick with it, I quoted it in my answer. I was answering the first two questions, not the second two.
My reply was on-topic, and in a public forum. People can write whatever they want.
If you haven't unlock with testpoint method, then you shouldn't be able to use neither music likes or trackID, no matter what you'll do (relock bootloader etc). It's strange that you now can use track ID with the way you described, have you tried to uninstall the music likes and install it again?

ok here's the simple steps after unlocking bootloader.
1. Uninstall the old TrackID (its a system app so u need root)
2. Download the latest TrackID on android market (the silver one/not the old blue)
3. Backup the FBMusicLikes.apk/Music Likes app
4. Uninstall the FBMusicLikes.apk/Music Likes app (its a system app so u need root)
5. Reinstall the FBMusicLikes.apk/Music Likes app
6. connect to net and try it, its now working again.
thanks to rioener for this discovery

what method u used for unlocking boatloader so that i can follow ur instruction at above post?
official or unofficial?
Official I guess..coz if u unlocked unofficially(ie. via Testpoint)...then Trackid works perfectly..u wouldn't need to do this
im not sure if this method actually works...

The official method states that it will remove the drm keys right in their web page... Why would you believe someone here rather than reading
.. Anyway I doubt you can recover drm keys back...

Hi,
I got my Z Ultra a acouple of days ago. I unlocked the Bootloader and installed CM11. I found serveral Threads talking about diffrent devices and flashable Zips in the Cross developement section, but I am totally confused tight now. Is there any way to enable Small Apps, the X-Reality or Bravia 2 engine or the Walkman App when using CM? I took a backup of my TA partition.

Bravia 2 works (well as well as it does on xperia firmware), as for the others pass. I think small apps relies on xperia frameworks so wont run on custom ROMs
Tahnks for the reply. How do I integrate the Bravia or X-Reality Engine into an CM installation?

Restoring Camera Image Quality in Xperia U (ST25i)

Hi/Hello,
I have a Xperia U (ST25i) ROOTED, Unlocked BOOTLOADER . TA partition is not backed up. So my camera quality decreased(digital noises are present) . Is there a way to restore only the Image quality (I know DRM keys ,not possible to restore) by flashing some .ftf or zip or replacing some ".so " or .apk files in library ?
(As camera quality restoring is possible in case of xperia Z series which available in XDA at http://forum.xda-developers.com/cros...s-drm-t2930672 I am hopping it is possible to restore for Xperia U by some modified TA ).
Thanks
